Seaweed/Nori Replacement for Sushi?
Hello all! I just wanted to see what sort of foods i could replace the nori or seaweed sheets in sushi. Nori never sits well with me and give me terrible headaches as well as stomachaches, probably to do with the high salt content but that is just speculation. I love sushi, but it would be soooo much better if I could replace the nori with something that wont wreck my evening. Any thoughts?

You can use yellow soy paper. (Google for it) It might be a little harder to find but it's used by quite a few Japanese restaurants for rolls that don't use nori. (Typically sweeter or desert rolls.)
It won't have the same taste as nori, but it is used just the same (same size sheets and you can roll it the same way) and is authentically Japanese. It does get soggy more quickly than nori though.

Soy paper looks like a great replacement! Looking around, do you think that cooked spinach would work? I just thought of it because it sounded delicious, but probably not too easy to work with.
